Les Jardin de Babylone Demi Sec 2017 Didier Dagueneau 75 cl

Description

History

Didier Dagueneau is an authentic symbol of the Loire region, who was able to valorise the art of high-quality viticulture, despite the tendency towards mass production, and passed on his philosophy to his children, Louis-Benjamin and Charlotte, who today they manage the winery. It is obvious that to obtain excellent results, great efforts and meticulous care of the vineyard, where no chemical or synthetic substances are used, and of the cellar, where spontaneous fermentation is adopted, are necessary. These wine jewels combine tension and elegance, embodying the concept of terroir, so precious to French winemakers. Absolutely unique and not to be missed.

Tasting notes

Golden yellow colour. On the nose hints of ripe fruit such as apricot and yellow peach, accompanied by notes of tropical fruit and delicate citrus fruits, with a sweet hint of honey. In the mouth it is deep and velvety, at the same time balanced and harmonious, with a marked acidity. Persistent, it ends with great refinement.

Possible combinations

Perfect to accompany spicy cheeses, fruit cakes or caramel tarts, making it ideal for a delicious after-dinner treat.
